I am in Mihua, and the ladies all like me

On the other side, on the side of Building A on the 65th floor connecting bridge, Serabelle leaned against the wall with her arms folded across her chest.

He took out his phone, glanced at it, and frowned slightly.

Serabelle arrived here two minutes ago, but six minutes have passed since the evacuation began. Except for herself, all the other men who followed her up the stairs to evacuate have left.

According to his calculations, the elevator carrying Sonoko and Ran should have arrived at the 65th floor at about the same time as his own. It had already been two minutes overdue, so why hadn't it come down yet?

At the same time, stuck in the elevator on the 68th floor, a large-caliber sniper bullet pierced through the outer glass and completely destroyed the elevator's control panel, which was emitting sparks.

At the top of a high-rise building hundreds of meters away from the Twin Towers, Gin, wearing a long black trench coat that never changes, looked at the "Shirley" in the elevator through the sight, who was scratching her head, sighing, and sometimes clasping her fingers together and praying to the sky, and didn't seem to be very smart. A hint of surprise inevitably appeared on his always cold face.

Could it be that... I recognized the wrong person?

After a moment of silence, he picked up the walkie-talkie and contacted Vodka.

"That's not Shirley, just someone else who looks like her. Also, activate the communication bridge bomb."

Chapter 174 Gin, you bastard!

Perhaps it was only two or three minutes until Serabelle, who was guarding the side of Building A of the connecting bridge, finally smelled the first faint smell of burning in the air, and then some messy footsteps were heard in the stairwell in the direction of the safe passage.

I took out my cell phone, turned on the flashlight mode and shone it over there. A familiar figure pushed the door open and rushed out.

It’s Xiaolan.

Following behind her were Conan, Sonoko and others. There were so many people in the elevator that not one was missing.

"There's a light ahead... Eh? Is that Sera-kun?"

Ran ran towards the communication bridge at a speed that completely exceeded the physical capabilities of an adult office worker. Ran, who originally thought it was Inspector Megure waiting here, walked closer and saw that it was actually Serabell. She couldn't help but brake in surprise.

Serabell stopped leaning against the wall waiting for someone, stood up and hummed lightly, her eyes falling on Miss Sonoko, who was gasping for breath and finally caught up with Xiaolan behind her.

After a quick glance, he felt relieved after finding no obvious scars or abnormalities.

"Didn't we agree to meet you at the communication bridge? I've been waiting here. So why are you so late?"

"Well... it's a long story. The elevator suddenly broke down and got stuck, so we had to get out through the top plate. Oh, and where are the others?"

Xiaolan asked with concern.

Serabelle pointed to the other side of the bridge and said, "I think everyone should have passed by now. All the men who took the stairs except me have already passed the bridge. This should be the last elevator for you guys."

"Then let's go over there right now!"

Keenly aware of the gradually burning smell in the air, Conan urged anxiously.

Serabelle glanced upstairs and said, "One more thing. Do you have a way to contact your friends right now? I don't think I saw them among those who passed through the communication bridge when the first elevator came down."

"Varied……"

Conan's expression froze for a moment.

He had no doubt that Serabelle would lie to him about this matter. Although there was a possibility that the light was dim and the distance was far and he couldn't see clearly, the matter was of great importance and he could only believe it.

At this time, Xiaolan Yuanzi and the other people who got on and off the same elevator were already heading towards the communication bridge. Seeing that the two were still staying where they were, they couldn't help but urge them.

"Conan, and Sera-kun, we have to leave soon, okay?"

"Ah wait a minute, I'll be right there!"

Conan replied hastily, hurriedly took out the detective badge from his clothes, pressed a small button on it and said loudly.

"Genta, Ayumi, Mitsuhiko, and Haibara, can you hear me? Where are you now?"

"..."

"..."

After two seconds of silence, a familiar and childish voice came from the detective badge.

The person who spoke was Mitsuhiko.

"Ah, it's Conan-kun. We are now at the elevator on the 75th floor, but why doesn't the elevator come no matter how hard we press the switch?"

"Why...are you there?!"

Upon hearing that these guys were still on the top floor, Conan was so shocked that he couldn't speak.

Even Serabelle took a silent breath.

Why are you still running around at a time like this? You know, this is a fire scene!

These naughty kids are really good at making trouble.

With a slight sigh, Serabelle took the detective badge that could be used as a walkie-talkie from Conan.

"Listen to me, the elevator is broken now. No matter how many times you press the button, it will be useless. There is only one way now, which is to go down the emergency passage immediately. I will come up to pick you up."

After saying the last sentence, he threw the detective badge back into Conan's hands.

"Okay, you and Xiaolan Yuanzi go first. I'll come and meet you when I find them."

"Wait a minute, I also..."

"It doesn't matter if you're not here. You go with Xiaolan Yuanzi and the others."

Without giving Conan a chance to speak, Serabelle grabbed the scruff of Fate's neck and threw it to Xiaolan who was anxiously waiting not far away, made a "take him away" gesture, and then turned and walked straight towards the safe passage.

There was a total distance of ten floors between the two sides, and one side went from top to bottom while the other side went from bottom to top, so the entire rendezvous process did not take too much time.

Two minutes later, Serabelle, Haibara Ai and the three little ones met on the staircase platform between the 70th and 69th floors.

The little guys moved unexpectedly quickly. Among the four, except Yuantai, who was a little out of breath due to so many long stairs due to his clumsy body, the other three were in pretty good condition.

"Wow! Brother Sera is here to pick us up!"

As soon as Ayumi saw him, she trotted over to him in surprise.

Yuantai, who was standing behind him, was holding on to the handrail of the stairs and could hardly stand straight.

“Ha…hahaha…we’re finally here, can we…take a short break…”

"No, we're not there yet. This is only the 69th floor."

After Serabell glanced at Haibara Ai and Mitsuhiko who were together, she prepared to go downstairs again.

Yuan Tai cried out in disappointment: "Then we have to go down a few more floors..."

Due to lack of oxygen, his already slow brain became even worse, and now it seems that he can't even do addition and subtraction within 100.

"Four more floors down."

Serabelle explained patiently as she walked down.

"Going downstairs isn't that physically demanding. Just hold on a little longer. Once you cross the bridge, you can rest as much as you want. But not now. The fire will soon spread. Even if it's for your own survival, you have to squeeze out all your strength for tomorrow..."

boom--!

Before he could finish his words, a sudden series of explosions shook everyone's eardrums.

"What, what's going on!"

"What happened!"

“What a loud noise!”

The children instinctively cried out in panic.

Serabel covered his ears and looked in the direction of the explosion. When he saw the situation below, he felt the blood run cold.

I saw raging flames blooming from the outside of the connection between Building B of the 65-story connecting bridge like blood-stained black roses.

The side of Building A is not very clear due to the angle, but judging from the vibrations under my feet, the situation should be similar.

The connecting bridge between the two buildings is supported by the connection points at both ends, with no support in the middle.

With the connection broken by the explosion, the steel bars weighing thousands of tons lost all their support points and began to fall downward under the force of gravity. They crashed heavily onto the 45-story connecting bridge from a height of dozens of meters, and then continued to fall down with the 45-story connecting bridge.

It was a scene that looked like the collapse of the sky. The seemingly indestructible communication bridge was like two broken snakes stacked on top of each other, falling towards the endless abyss below with no one able to stop them.

Not only did they blow up the server room, they also blew up the communication bridge. Didn't they make it look like their competitors were maliciously trying to trip them up so that people wouldn't understand their true intentions?

Serabelle held her forehead in agony.

"Gin, you're a piece of shit."

Chapter 175 Agasa Technology, Shocking

The only escape route was also cut off.

The fire below not only burned down several floors but was also spreading rapidly upwards.

At this point, it was no longer possible to continue escaping according to the original plan, and even leaving alive became a luxury.

The only way to survive... no, to be more precise, to die later is to go up, hold on as long as possible before the fire spreads up, and hope to get a chance of survival during this time.

There was no need for Serabelle to say anything. The brown-haired girl, who also had the mind of an adult and recognized the reality at the first moment, turned to the other three little ones beside her.

"There's no time to explain, we have to go up now!"

"Eh? Why?"

Yuantai hadn't reacted yet. The physical fatigue and the shock brought by the loud noise just now caused his already slow brain to freeze instantly.

Didn’t they just say that they were going to take the stairs down? And they went to the top floor after getting off the elevator halfway. Later, it was Serabelle who said that the elevator was broken and they had to go downstairs to meet them. So now that they have finally met up, they have to go up again?

Then all the work done before was in vain. Besides... wasn’t the elevator said to be broken?

However, Haibara Ai was not in the mood to explain so much to him. She simply said that if she wanted to survive, she could come up, then she winked at Mitsuhiko and Ayumi, and took the lead to run upstairs.

I have to say that Mingmei’s mountain climbing training last week was somewhat effective, otherwise, with her weak personality as a scientific research geek, she would have been exhausted after climbing so many stairs back and forth.

Of course, having said that, it wasn't necessarily that easy for Haibara Ai after running nearly ten floors in a row.

But Yuanta really couldn't walk. Seeing this, Serabel could only reach out and grab his forearm. It felt like grabbing a little pig's trotter bought at the vegetable market, and strode towards the steps. .

"follow me."

"oh oh……"

After being pulled by Serabelle, Yuantai, who was originally severely burdened by his weight, finally felt a little relieved and was able to barely take a step to keep up.

On the way up, Serabelle answered Conan's call.

"Hey! What's going on over there?!"

The anxious voice of a certain elementary school student who was a god of death came from the other end of the line.

Serabelle sighed lightly, still speaking in a calm tone: "What else could it be? Don't tell me you didn't see two large pieces of stuff falling from the communication bridge. Now I can't reach Building B for the time being, so I'm preparing to go up."

"Upwards..."

Conan's voice paused on the phone. He knew very well that Serabelle's so-called upward movement was nothing more than a delaying tactic.

"Is there anything I can do?" he asked.

"Uh--"

Even though he was in the middle of a fire, Serabel's voice was calm, as if it had nothing to do with him.

He glanced at the brown-haired girl who was walking in front of him with Ayumi Mitsuhiko, thought for a moment, and changed his words after dropping the word "no".

"If you still have a conscience, try to find a way to deliver the things in the trunk of Professor Agasa's car."

"Send it up?!"

At the same time, Conan, who was in the ruined square below the building, looked up at the twin-tower skyscraper that had become completely independent and one of the buildings was still burning.

The two sections of the connecting bridge that had fallen earlier were now lying across the square between the two buildings. The glass, cement, bricks and stones were all shattered, and the steel frame was twisted like a pretzel.

The fragments that flew out when they hit the ground turned into stray bullets, sweeping across the windshields of the vehicles parked in the front row of the square, and some of the roofs were even dented.

In addition, the VIP elevator in Building A is broken. How can he get him up there?

You can't ask him to turn into the Flash and run up the stairs to reach the destination in an instant.

Woo——!

While I was lost in thought, the sounds of sirens from numerous fire trucks intertwined and gradually grew closer, accompanied by a huge amount of wind pressure coming down from the sky.

Wait, wind pressure?
